EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph showcases a beautifully preserved specimen of the Cloudless Sulphur butterfly, Phoebis sennae, a vibrant and captivating insect native to the Galapagos Islands. Belonging to the Pieridae family, this invertebrate is identified by its distinct yellow wings, which are devoid of clouds or markings, giving it its name. The Cloudless Sulphur is not only a resident of the Galapagos Archipelago but also found throughout Central and South America. As an arthropod, this Lepidopteran, or butterfly, is part of the larger class Hexapoda, which includes insects with six legs. The Cloudless Sulphur is a member of the Order Insecta, and its scientific name, Phoebis sennae, reflects its genus and species. The male specimen in this image displays the typical features of the Cloudless Sulphur, with its bright yellow wings and black borders. The Cloudless Sulphur plays an essential role in its ecosystem as a pollinator, feeding on the nectar of various flowers. Its presence in the Galapagos Islands adds to the rich biodiversity of this unique archipelago. This studio shot provides a close-up view of the intricate details of the Cloudless Sulphur's wings and body, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this remarkable invertebrate.
